July 22, 201411 yr The water-oil cooler in the Jeep took a dump. Heads had casting sand in them and a couple hundred miles after the install I started noticing oil in coolant and oil temps were a tad higher than before. Typical Ford 6.0 oil cooler failure symptoms and even causes, I think)Fast forward to last week, I remove the radiator to change it and flush the system. Normal radiator flush does nothing, I step up to washing soda solution, which works a treat. But filling the overflow bottle and running the electric water pump (pushes from overflow to water pump input and further to radiator output), a lot of oil keeps coming out. Oil cooler output is very close to water pump input, so it makes sens there's a lot of oil there. Yeah...time for another oil cooler. It's a very uncommon failure (headgasket has no oil passages, heads are very thick where water comes close to oil) so I ordered a used one in working condition.

July 22, 201411 yr Taking the Caddy through the cones next year at Summer Nats You should, there was an SRT-10 truck there on Sunday.Had I had my brain on straight I would have this year. I was so distracted with vendors, shopping and asking those who have Turboed LS's before questions that trying to have some fun just didn't pop into my mind. Then I was tired, hungry and ran back to try to make it out with a few friends.* *never happened as the driver got a BWI on their way to pick me up. Rest of the guys took turns blowing to see who could drive the boat back heckling the rent-a-boat-cop in the process. Videotaped that as well.
July 22, 201411 yr Went looking at Siennas, ended up with this. Must have contracted Sean's illness. Got them to knock 15 off sticker because it's not the "new" new model.
